Chemistry Minor Requirements

Chemistry, the systematic study of matter in the universe, has many different facets to it. A minor in Chemistry offers students the opportunity to explore a number of the diverse areas in this "central" science. For students who have fulfilled chemistry pre-med requirements, the minor can be fulfilled by taking just two additional courses.

The Chemistry minor consists of six courses in total. Two semesters of General Chemistry are required as the introductory courses for the minor. Four additional chemistry courses, chosen in consultation with the Director of the Chemistry Minor, Professor Lynne O'Connell, are required to complete the minor. Normally two of the four additional courses would be Organic Chemistry I and II, but other selections might be better choices, depending on the student's objective in attaining the minor.
